I currently have an old computer with dial up modem that I am thinking of replacing with this computer. Does this have a modem or is it wireless? I

This system does not have a dial up modem. It has wireless network adapter to connect to a wireless router and it has a gigabit ethernet adapter to connect to a router using a CAT 5 cable. If you need a dial up modem I would get an external USB modem since there is no space inside the computer for a modem card. I have used a USRobotics USB modem model 5637 with this computer and it worked very well.

Would not recommend this USB modem, it has no instructions or clues as to how to use it other than it specifically acts as a dial-up modem for Internet access and for fax/data applications via a land telephone line (includes the telephone cord for connecting the same). You said you have a "modem wire" - suggesting you already have a modem and thus no need for an external modem. Maybe you need a USB connector, not a modem? Best to due more research for your specific need.

This computer has WiFi capability. It can therefore log onto a LAN (a local area network.) It has no modem for telephony.

Hi Ken - Yes! It is COMBINED modem and wireless router which replaces two (2) pieces of equipment. HOWEVER... The damned thing DIED last week! I replaced it with an ATT supplied DSL Modem/Router (NetGear 7550). Setup was a breeze and if needed, there is STATE SIDE support. Stick with an ATT supplied modem/router!

For clarification, this hardware is not an internet modem that you would to connect a PC desktop or laptop to the internet. This hardware is a data Fax (facsimile) modem. This piece of hardware is installed on PC and is used to send facsimile over phone line to a receiver facsimile machine. (I hope this explanation helps to clarify the confusing terminology.)

It must have internet access to a modem via a router or switch. I have mine connected to a switch which is connected to a router which in turn is connected to the modem.

The one I purchased for my sister did have a modem, but with WiFi, she isn't using it since her internet connection is via her cable modem and WiFi router. (I can't imagine it wouldn't have one since most of these computers are returns from business leases) If you are still concerned, I recommend you call the seller and ask to be sure. PS, you might also ask if they will include the Windows re-install disc so if the hard drive dies, you will be able to re-install Windows without having to lay out the cash to buy it. Mine did not come with the disc, but they sent it upon request. It likely will NOT have MS Office or other software with it - just windows XP. Good luck!

NO.. Actually I sent this modem back. I did replace it, however, with a "TELEPHONY" modem that is just like the one I was renting from Comcast. I didn't realize my error in reviewing this item until after I hit ENTER. sorry

If you mean a Regular Modem, No. There is a Ethernet (the bigger phone plug looking thing) to plug in for high speed internet. I don't suggest this computer with Windows 8. It was confusing for my 73 year old father in law. I suggest it with Windows 7 for anyone over 30 to be honest.

The modem has one, almost all of the modems have (1) Ethernet port. You need to connect a router to add additional Ethernet ports in order to share the connection (or have WiFi).

There is no dial up modem including in this model or most new notebooks in general. If you need one you can add a USB modem.

This is only a modem. If you need to connect to the internet over wifi, you need to connect the modem to a router that supports wifi.

No, this computer does not have modem for dial-up. You would have to add a modem card.

If I understand your question to be "Can I use this computer plugged directly to cable or phone (modem) and not use it as a wireless unit, then yes. We have a 23" HP All in One that is hooked up to cable, with modem and router. I am not very good with the terms of all these 'attachments', but as you can see, I can get the job done! 8-)

It came with the ac charger, but did not come with the modem for old fashion dial up. We have a wireless router at our home, so we are able to get right onto the internet without having to dial up.

This is not a wireless modem. If you want wireless you have to go with Arris TG1662 or TG.862.
